Saturday Post 399

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 2756 steps; secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'The Window Of The Heart' and thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Be Gentle (1)'. Anyways, events for today?

  • Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! Nature didn't call until dearest dad very thoughtfully walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the latch into the garage @ 7:05am; after one pot :P I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 
  • Then somehow I snored all the way until 9:30am before waking again for the pot! Unsurprisingly, 'twas PIG mum's daily noisy a-THUMPING around upstairs that awoke me. Shortly afterwards, she comes downstairs to hit me with the eye goo before going back outside and awaiting Hannah's arrival. While she was gone,  I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing  on  my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

  • When she arrived she said good morning and fifteen more minutes? Uber nodded @ her and she wisely removed herself until I called her back with the usual, "Hannah, I'm hungry ...,"
  • When she came back, I used the pot :P for one more tinkle, also apologising in advance if I became bitchy today coz I had my COVID booster shot yesterday and am now sporting a sore arm; Hannah laughed, said no worries and then apologised if ahe was bitchy in advance too coz she's got her monthlies now and her head hurts. XD
  • We got me kitted and then I headed over to the bathroom and brush teeth. Ela enjoys one more break this week from having to hold the toothbrush.
  • After brushing teeth, I sit over the loo. There, I do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning fully against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel. Remember, however the cruel and unfaithful God tries to make my day bad for me, I won't let that affect me because my good day has NOTHING to do with Him; I'm perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him. See, my good day's dependent on my own good attitude!

  • After washing and drying Era, I walk myself slowly and safely out to the gobbling :P table,  rising above the cruel and unfaithful God’s near-overwhelming hatred and not letting Him push me over.   

  • Thanks to dad for cooking yummy ham and eggs for breakfast; thanks to Hannah who cooked the bread yummy for me and added one slice of cheese. Over breakfast, I happily read for thirty minutes first up, reaching page seventy-five @ 11:27am.
  • I use the loo for one more tinkle while Hannah gets The Block ready. After I've climbed into her tank, she tootles me off to Underwood MarketPlace.
  • Parking outside The Coffee Club, I hike like the ENTIRE length of the shopping centre - only to find that The Post Office isn't open on Saturday! o_O I walk back and take a seat @ the first bench I find; Hannah takes the letter and drops it into the red tin out the other end.
  • Before going into Woolies and getting bread and tissues, I buy two mini vegie tempura nigiri from Sushi Creators.
  • Back home, I turn off the alarm and take a nice warm shower - hairwash today. Also thanks to Hannah who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing Era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
  • I had one tinkle before Hannah flips the nice warm water off, get dried, get creamed and have another tinkle. When Hannah rekits me, I have one more tinkle when she's helping with Erf's sock and one last when she's giving Wally back to Ela.
  • Back outside, Hannah makes me my second mug of white tea with two sugars, cleans the bathroom and then reheats some rice leftovers for me. I happily continue reading for another forty minutes, reaching pg. 100 @ 1:40pm.
  • Before Hannah left, I used the loo once more for two tinkles. She's back 8:30am till 11am toms and taking me to church!
  • Once I've used up my most important two hours of the day online I'll head over to eat my yummy sushi rolls and hopefully read for two hours and ten minutes, coz it's only Saturdays that I can spend a blessed three hours reading~
  • Toms: Hannah's coming @ 8:30am and leaving me @ BCAC for ESS @ 11am. 
  • Would love lunch out with other ESS peers but expecting just a Happy Meal with dad.
  • Although he'd better take us out for dinner if that's the case!
  • Anyways, hopefully bbl else looking forward to seeing everyone @ church toms!
    Cheers,
    Em. ^^
